Avatar f tn my 2 year old son hurt himself, his baby fingernail is coming off, its almost half off. will at home bandages keeping it together heal it???
Avatar m tn The thing is that he was still able to reach orgasm, but without any semen actually coming out of his penis due to the prostate surgery he had. However, there were still some precum coming out of his penis. And when he was giving me oral sex, he was touching his penis and fingering me with the same hand. I worry that his precum might have gotten into my anus, thus making a "unprotected receptive anal sex situation"? Is this a risk for HIV? I am a bit lost in this.
Avatar f tn My figernails are separating from the nail beds and falling off. When I brought this up to my oncologist, he stated that it was from the Taxotere. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem occur and what they've done for it. Thanks!
Avatar m tn Two months ago I trapped my finger stupidly in the door (where the hinges are) and today the nail finally fell off. I have added a photo as I am not sure if everything is ok. I guess what is the nail is growing back but its like a half inch bump in the middle of the nail, Could anyone recommend if I should leave nature take it's course, or should I see a doctor?
Avatar m tn Could this be a type of fingernail material growing from the scalp? The physical consistency of this 'hair' strongly resembles that of a fingernail. Extensive searching the net has found nothing. Surely my daughter is not the only case like this. I read about keratin, but it seems the keratin in hair and nails is the same.
Avatar f tn I was poking at a small scab on my shaft and used my fingernail to pop a small blister. I then put some soap on turned on the water and started to lather my hand, but then before I could get the water on my hand my fingernail I was using dug into my other hands skin and broke the skin and drew blood. I washed my hands for about a min but my question is I had blister waterish on my fingernail and went into skin. Could have I just transferred the fluid into my skin ?
Avatar n tn Obtaining sample nail clippings and sending it off for a fungal culture can confirm the diagnosis of an infection. If present, then appropriate anti-fungal medications should be started. There are also various rheumatological diseases that can present with fingernail symptoms, and if suspected, various anti-antibody tests can be done as well as a referral to a rheumatologist.
Avatar f tn Is fingernails determine who the father is?
Avatar n tn Ever since I can remember, on my thumbnail and big-toe nail, there has been a strange deterioration. It looks like a series of grooves in the center of the nail (see attached pictures). My fingernails aren't weak or brittle and they're not really falling off or anything. I don't think it's anything serious, but I've always been curious what it is. If anybody could help at all, that would be great.
Avatar f tn I bite my fingernails off and one of my cuticles is really red and sore. Almost like an open sore. It looks like it's on the verge of bleeding. Well, I inserted that finger inside another guy's ***. Is that a risk?
Avatar n tn Hello, Last night I was at a strip club with some friends and I got a lap dance from one of the girls. My finger was dry and the skin below the fingernail area was peeling so there was a small cut. I don't believe it was bleeding at the time, however the outer layer of my skin is peeled off and you can see the red skin beneath. I have done some research and searched the forums but I could not find a similar question.
Avatar n tn Can HIV be transmitted if semen got underneath a fingernail? In otherwords, is the tissue underneath the fingernail vulnerable to passing HIV into the blood stream?
Avatar m tn Do you think the virus will transfer from my hand to zipper to then underneath my fingernail? Is it possible to get underneath the fingernail from a small metal zipper?
Avatar n tn Do I need to be worried every time I get a cut out in public? Yesterday i was in our office trying to make jokes to everyone...when i got home that i had dried blood in my fingernail.. and i have a wound near my fingernail. Do i need to be concern in this matter?
Avatar n tn The back of my two bottom teeth are peeling off at the gum. If I took my fingernail, I could pull part of my tooth off. I can't see back there to see what is happening and it doesn't hurt. Help!
Avatar f tn Forgive me if I am wrong but is the blood stream not just that i.e if you bleed then the item/object eg the fingernail has penetrated direct into your blood stream? Please explain as this is very concerning for me after being scratched when shaking hands and it caused me to bleed quite a bit from my finger.
Avatar f tn This is my first time posting on any of these forums. I have read others' experiences of coming off SSRIs and wanted to get opinions on my situation. I'm 19 and started taking Zoloft (Sertraline 50mg) in June last year after a very difficult year of anxiety. I didn't want medication to be a long-term thing for me, so I focused a lot on CBT and only took meds for six months or so. I am now completely off the Zoloft and haven't taken any for almost two weeks.

I am 5ft 2" and am having a bad patch my weight is 28kg i am 43 yrs old. I this a bad weight to be. I am trying to increase my diet slowly. I DO NOT binge or make myself sick.
Avatar n tn No one seems to think there should be any problems coming off it, yet I am experiencing this consistenly, and have had to visit the eye hospital on 2 of the occassions. Do you have any advice with regards coming off plaquanil? Should this be happening? What should I do?
Avatar m tn Ok so I take about 12mg of subs per day and I'm coming off them cold turkey it's been about 37 hours so far and no withdrawals yet what should I expect in terms of withdrawals and when should I expect them to hit me head on?
Avatar f tn with added vitamin B6). It has made coming off codeine so much easier. Just please be aware you CANNOT take it if you are on any kind of anti-depressant. I had almost given up every getting off tablets, as I suffer from migraines and I do need to take pain killers. The problem was I had ended up taking more than the recommended dosages and was also getting rebound headaches from medication withdrawal...the result a daily habit of pill popping.
